You are only 19 yrs old.. If you are working out for building muscles the kind of work out will decide how much protein you need through a and whether you at all need protein supplement . Also if you are a non vegetarian the protein can be met from your food itself. If a qualified person is not available in the gym you can book an appointment through practo or video consult to get your diet reviewed.

As a beginner, the best time to consume a protein shake can vary depending on your individual goals and preferences. Here are a few common recommendations:
Post-Workout: Consuming a protein shake within 30 minutes to an hour after your workout is a popular choice. This timing is often recommended because it helps replenish your muscles with amino acids, which are the building blocks of proteins. It can aid in muscle recovery and growth.
Pre-Workout: Some people prefer to have a protein shake before their workout to provide their muscles with a readily available source of amino acids during exercise. This can help prevent muscle breakdown and enhance performance.
Between Meals: You can also consume a protein shake as a snack or between meals to increase your overall protein intake throughout the day. This can be beneficial if you struggle to meet your daily protein requirements through whole food sources alone.
Give yourself enough time to digest: Consume your protein shake at least 30 minutes to an hour before your workout to allow sufficient time for digestion. This can help prevent any discomfort during your exercise session.

Hi..hope you are doing well.
You can take your protein shake after workout ( keep a gap of 10-15 mins)
After workout we should always take protein rich food or protein shake to rebuild our muscles.
And don't forget to have your pre workout meal like banana or apple or one bread with peanut butter before 10-15 mins of your workout.

Hi,
Although you should derive all nutrients from the diet only. Take balanced meals comprising all nutrients. Still for exercise/ gym/ protein intake mornings are the best time. Thanks
